Inspired by the diversity of Brazilian soils, the architect Daniela Funari He was responsible for the entrance and ticket office, titled “Solos”, at CASACOR São Paulo 2024.

On each shelf, decorative objects such as ceramic vases, pieces with natural weaves and sculptures in neutral and earthy tones dictate the color palette followed throughout the room.

“Everything speaks to each other: the furniture with the colors, the colors with the finishes, the finishes with the textures and shapes of the building and, finally, the whole with the works of art. And all of this solidifies as a gift for the public to reflect on the urgent needs of the present”, concludes the professional.
